SageTV 6.2.5 Beta includes improved tuner and HD support

SageTV released a new beta of its PC based PVR software today. SageTV 6.2.5 Beta for Linux and Windows includes a boatload of bug fixes and new features, including:

• Added support for Hauppauge WinTV HVR-1800 TV tuners in Windows
  
• Added ClearQAM (unencrypted high definition cable) support for Hauppauge WinTV HVR-1600 and HVR-1800 TV tuners in Windows
  
• Added support for AverMedia M780 TV tuner in Windows Vista
• Fixed a Windows bug that caused music files to end early
• Fixed audio/video sync bug with H.264 files
• Support changing from over-the-air to cable TV tuning without restarting the application or having to pick a different input
• Added Apple TV transcoding profiles

As always, remember that this is beta software, so your results may vary. If you're the adventurous sort, and don't mind crashing your PC or missing a few recordings, it looks like a great update. For everyone else, you might want to wait until the next stable release.
